What is the word for truth and its meaning in Koine Greek?

There is absolutely no relation to λίθος/lithos=stone. Notice the η vs ι.

The Greek word for thief/robber/pirate is ληστής/listis which is derived from λανθάνω as well

The root verb is λανθάνω/lanthano=to escape notice/to make one forget/to lay hidden

How conservative the Japanese people really is? And the government?

The word has remained the same into Modern Greek

The word you are looking for is:

αλὴθεια / Alithea.

Have you ever had sex with your mother-in-law? If so, how was it and did your wife ever find out?

a couple of points:

as a result Alitheia, the Goddess of Truth, was always depicted as a naked, unassuming and plain looking woman. The Latin equivalent was nuda Veritas. Truth has nothing to hide and didn’t need all the adornments of the other gods.

Nuda Veritas is the derivation of the term “Naked Truth”.

Have you ever had sex with your female cousin? How did it start?

A similarly derived word is ληθαργία/lethargia=toiling under forgetfulness/stupor….lethargy.

the word is composed of the privative prefix α- and λήθη/lethe which means “forgetfulness/stupor”. So the αλήθεια means “without fault/stupor/hiding”
